What Impact Assistant Does
1. Queries Your Data in Plain Language
Ask questions about your data the way you'd ask a colleague — and Impact Assistant turns them into real dataset queries, respecting the permissions you already have.
Try questions like:
- "How many devices did I sell last year?"
- "Break this down by month."
- "Show me the top five performers by region."
Impact Assistant generates line charts, bar charts, pie charts, and single-value answers based on what you ask. It follows the conversation, so you can iterate — "now show me just Q3" — without restating the whole question each time. Charts can be saved to your organization with one click.
2. Surfaces Insights Automatically
Not sure where to start? Ask Impact Assistant what's worth exploring.
Try: "What interesting insights can I find in my device sales data?"
Impact Assistant suggests breakdowns and visualizations worth exploring — a natural starting point for ad hoc analysis when you're not sure what question to ask yet.
3. Answers How-To Questions About Spider Impact
Impact Assistant has Spider Impact's entire support documentation built in. Instead of searching the knowledge base or waiting on support, just ask.
- "How do I share a form publicly?"
- "Where do I update admin settings for this report?"
- "How do I add a new KPI?"
Impact Assistant walks you through the steps, points you to the relevant settings, and links directly to the full support article — all without leaving the platform.
